How we work

Corrs applies technical expertise, industry knowledge and a deep understanding of the importance of taxation in commercial dealings to deliver innovative solutions to commercial clients operating within a complex regulatory environment.

By working closely with colleagues from practice groups across Corrs, we develop structures for clients that seamlessly address taxation as well as other legal issues while ensuring appropriate documentation that is cost effective. Clients seeking advice on sensitive matters are assured of the legal professional privilege that protects legal advice on taxation issues and which prevents access to such communications by taxation and other authorities.

Corrs' specialist taxation practitioners bring clients a broad range of skills and experience in all areas of direct and indirect tax laws drawn from backgrounds in industry and chartered accounting as well as Federal and State taxation authorities. This mix of private and public experience ensures clients superior service and advice on matters including tax management and administration, GST, stamp duty and other taxation requirements.

Our clients include numerous leading Australian companies in the manufacturing, resources, property, financial services, biotechnology and information technology sectors.

We provide advice on the full range of tax issues arising from strategic mergers and acquisitions, commercial contracting, corporate restructurings, capital raisings, inbound and outbound investments, cross-border structurings, structured financing transactions (including securitisations), venture capital transactions, taxation audits and taxation dispute resolution.

We provide regular updates to our clients on major corporate tax developments. As well as speaking regularly at industry forums, our lawyers are active in a number of professional associations.
